1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Along improvement of prognosis of HIV-1-infected patients due to successful anti-retroviral therapy, main causes of death in the patients have been changing from AIDS to non-AIDS defining malignancies (NADM) recently. However, little is known about the prevalence and incidence of NADM in patients, and especially in HIV-1-infected hemophiliacs. We prospectively conducted NADM screening with FDG-PET, chest CT, upper gastrointestinal endoscopy, tumor markers, and stool occult blood in hemophiliacs with a mean age of 48.9 years. Screening was done twice from December 2016 through March 2019; the first screening was used to calculate prevalence in 69 patients and the second was used to calculate incidence in 56 patients. The first screening revealed 4 cases of malignancies; three were cases of thyroid cancer and one was a case of a neuroendocrine tumor in the pancreas; prevalence was 5.8% (95% CI: 0.2-11.4%). During a mean follow-up of 1.2 years with 68.2 person-years (PYs), cancer was diagnosed in 2 cases (pancreatic and liver cancer) during the second screening. Incidence was 2.99/100 PY. It can be speculated that there might be around 40 cases of undiagnosed NADM currently and 20 cases of new NADM annually in this population, because 718 HIV-1-infected hemophiliacs are surviving in Japan according to the 2018 Nationwide Survey on Coagulation Disorders. Screening for NADM in HIV-1-infected hemophiliacs at other hospitals is strongly recommended.
